Bird of Paradise

〈Bird of Paradise〉以天堂鳥花為意象，寫一首關於「自在盛開」的歌。

它有著如鳥振翅般奇異而鮮明的姿態，卻從不追問自己是否足夠美麗，只是迎著陽光，在屬於自己的季節裡生長。歌曲以明亮輕盈的流行搖滾為底色，讓吉他、鼓點與溫暖的人聲，帶著一點九〇年代的清新與懷舊，在看似簡單的旋律裡藏進對生活的想像。

我們總急著尋找幸運、答案與被認可的理由，或許偶爾也可以像一朵花那樣，不必成為誰期待的模樣。

下雨就淋雨，天晴便仰望天空。

每一個生命都有自己的季節，而盛開本身，就是飛翔。

Morning opens up the sky
Golden colors drifting by
There's a flower in the sun
Looking like it's ready to run
Everybody passes through
Never stops to see the view
Funny how a little bloom
Can brighten up an ordinary room
It doesn't need a crown to shine
It simply grows in its own time
Bird of paradise
Dancing in the morning light
Stretching to the open blue
Like it always knew the truth
Bird of paradise
Never asking "who am I?"
Every color, every line
Says, "Today is yours and mine."
Wind is playing with the leaves
Tiny stories, simple dreams
Even on a cloudy day
You can never fade away
People worry, people rush
Looking for a little luck
Maybe all we have to do
Is bloom the way we're meant to
If tomorrow brings the rain
You'll be smiling just the same
Every season has its song
Every heart knows where it belongs
Bird of paradise
Flying without leaving sight
Painting sunshine in the air
Growing hope beyond compare
Bird of paradise
Teach me how to live this life
Open wide and face the sky
Bird of paradise, fly...
